Resumen del Editor

Docker in Action teaches listeners how to create, deploy, and manage applications hosted in Docker containers. After starting with a clear explanation of the Docker model, you will learn how to package applications in containers, including techniques for testing and distributing applications. You will also learn how to run programs securely and how to manage shared resources. Using carefully designed examples, the book teaches you how to orchestrate containers and applications from installation to removal. Along the way, you'll discover techniques for using Docker on systems ranging from dev-and-test machines to full-scale cloud deployments.

The idea behind Docker is simple. Create a tiny virtual environment, called a container, that holds just your application and its dependencies. The Docker engine uses the host operating system to build and account for these containers. They are easy to manage and applications running inside share resources, making their footprints small.

What's inside:

• Packaging containers for deployment
• Installing, managing, and removing containers
• Working with Docker images
• Distributing with DockerHub

Listeners need only have a working knowledge of the Linux OS. No prior knowledge of Docker is assumed. Jeff Nickoloff, a software engineer, has presented Docker and its applications to hundreds of developers and administrators at Desert Code Camp, Amazon, and technology meetups.

Thank you!

Thank you Manning for creating this audio companion! I'm a slow reader and need this audio to guide me through the text. You'd need to get the text/paper version to fully understand the content. This audio is for the first edition of the book. That means you can buy cheap used books from Amazon. Although some technical details have been changed over the past few years, the basics are still the same. Once you get the paper version, this experience is pretty immersive! You just need to listen to the content like a story and refer to the examples on the paper version. The narrator's voice is pretty engaging. It makes the experience even better. This comment refers to Docker in Action. For the text, I'd prefer paper to digital so I can flip back and forth finding references. A paper version would also help remember the command/script/variables structures. We all sort of using our graphic/text memory.
BTW, I'd need to pause the audio when an example (code/command) is presented so expect to pause the audio frequently.

Edit:
I see some issues with the outdated contents now. I'll list them below.
- Chapter 4: "Volumn Containers" are no longer recommended. Use Docker Volume instead.

Edit:
Due to the content update in the 2nd edition of the book, I can no longer recommend this audio. I personally also have the 2nd edition in paper format. However, I'll keep the rating to encourage Manning to produce more audio content like this.

probably a good book in text

this book is too specific, with too many cli examples, to be useful as an audio book
